Information processing apparatus related to machine learning for detecting target from image, method for controlling the same, and storage medium

A method for controlling an information processing apparatus, the method comprising:

• receiving, by a reception unit, an input specifying a position of a detection target included in an image;
• acquiring, by an acquisition unit, a storage amount of training data including a pair of information indicating the image and information indicating the position specified by the input;
• training, by a training unit, a training model to detect the detection target from the image based on the stored training data;
• and
• controlling, by a display control unit, a predetermined display unit to display the storage amount, and the reference amount of the training data set as an amount of the training data necessary for the training unit to train the training model, in a comparable way.

A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium storing a program that causes a computer to function as:

• a reception unit configured to receive an input specifying a position of a detection target included in an image;
• an acquisition unit configured to acquire a storage amount of training data including a pair of information indicating the image and information indicating the position specified by the input;
• a training unit configured to train a training model to detect the detection target from the image based on the stored training data;
• and
• a display control unit configured to control a display unit to display the storage amount, and a reference amount of the training data set as an amount of the training data necessary for the training unit to train the training model, in a comparable way.

An information processing system comprising:

• a reception unit configured to receive an input specifying a position of a detection target included in an image;
• an acquisition unit configured to acquire a storage amount of training data including a pair of information about the image and information about the input position;
• a training unit configured to train a training model to detect the detection target from the image based on the stored training data;
• a display control unit configured to control a display unit to display the storage amount, and a reference amount of the training data set as an amount of the training data necessary for the training unit to train the training model, in a comparable way;
• and
• a detection unit configured to detect the detection target from the image based on a trained model having been trained by the training unit after the storage amount has reached the reference amount.
